How is your friend and her family doing? I hope that she and her children have been relocated to a safe place. You are a loyal and special friend to her and I thank the dear man upstairs that you are there for her and her children. Aged Pa would be so proud of you!

Thank you for asking job, K is sitting up and feeding properly.
Her bruises are at their worst but the swelling is going down. She has been interviewed and photographed.
She hurts and is distressed that her boys will see her like this, but to me it could have been much much worse. She passed out quickly and wasn't kicked so it's her head and face that have taken the brunt on the attack.
She could have died or suffered much worse brain damage, the para medics were amazing.
They are being moved on Wednesday.

I am glad that K is sitting up and is now eating properly. Yes, it could have been far worse for her. I'm sure she is in pain and the bruising looks terrible...but she will heal physically...but, it's going to take a lot of love, support and therapy to help her heal mentally and emotionally. I'm sure she has a wonderful support system and you are there to provide the love and support that she and her boys need.
Sending prayers their way.

All is quiet on that front, now and K and the boys are relocating.
I have to let go of it now.
I fell over in the car park at my gym and broke a bone in my foot and that means I won't be able to exercise or dance for at least 6 weeks. I have a boot.
I failed one of my exams too and that has brought me down. I will resit it.
So today I am feeling low, and as result of stress I have put on weight which is annoying since I can't exercise.

I am so sorry to read that you've broken a bone in your foot. Gosh, that really put a stop to some of the activities that you love for a short period of time.
Please do not allow the failure of an exam to bring you down. You'll take it again and will pass with flying colors.
Vanilla...you are too hard on yourself. You are a good person and you have to slow down just a wee bit. Someone upstairs is trying to tell you that...take time to breathe and slow down. You will get everything accomplished and be able to say "I've done it!".

Agreed! From someone that does similar. Its not easy to live with someone that sets such difficult standards to meet.
Be kinder to yourself. You are the person that helped a mom and her kids even though it was traumatic and emotionally difficult. Not the person that gained a few pounds cause of an injury.
Sorry to hear about the broken foot V but am glad to hear that you are now able to focus on yourself.
Weight goes up, weight goes down. The you inside continues to be you.
Perhaps time to experiment with different recipes? I made my very first from scratch salsa yesterday. Tasty and likely low cal as I generally refuse to add sugar unless absolutely necessary.
Be good to yourself ((V))

Oh no, Lady V! Like someone before me said, maybe this is a sign to slow down and take a breath. I'm so sorry you are enduring this and feeling down, but dear lady, you are just so fabulous that you deserve to show yourself some love. You can use this time that you can't exercise to focus your energies on other things.
Hang in there, sweet lady. This too shall pass.
